Always love it when BBEdit can trivially edit a 60MB JSON file and trying it with Xcode just explodes the editor and stops lines rendering
@viticci It’s best to lie down and wait for that urge to pass.
@agiletortoise In Finland it’s common to take one’s car to Lapland on Autotrain.

This is the first photo I took of my new girlfriend in 1993. It’s a bit worn. It was taken with what was already a vintage Polaroid B&W camera from the early 70s that my Dad had passed off to me.

It’s a bit rough, because it spent years in the visor of my truck…but as we close in on our 30th anniversary, it’s all the more meaningful.

I pulled it out because one of my sons came home from the vintage shop with a similar era Polaroid he got for his partner, who’s a photographer.

Siri doesn't get better.

BBEdit belongs to that very special class of licensed software that you automatically upgrade before reading the release notes.

Please don’t mention the cost of university education in Finland. It’s too early for him to worry about these things.

It was also popular for a short while to use macros to redefine operators using other natural languages. For instance in Finnish one could have had

#define IKISILMUKKA for(;;)

Of course, very quickly people realised that also programmers and not only programs should be portable… In any case, many of our Anglo-American friends often forget that the early exposure to programming concepts is different if the programming languages bear some similarities to one’s native tongue.

I often wear colourful bow ties when I write Fortran. I hope it is acceptable.
